Modern Vespa

Hello. I am new here. I have a 2006 vespa 150 piaggio and the battery is dead. It is a ctx12-bs and I cannot seem to get a clear answer on the internet as to what is the best battery to replace it with. Seems this battery is discontinued.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

I use these guys.

Thank you! Much appreciated!

I put this one in my LX150 last year. Direct fit. Still going strong....

Major manufacturers have these batteries in the scooter.
Pull your battery to measure it. Look at battery post types and locations.
Use the YUASA guide to select a battery of the same physical size - then choose the most powerful one, for longer service life and better starts, and order from Amazon, eBay, Revzilla, etc.

PS: you do NOT need to find your scooter listed - just buy the same size - I have done this and put more powerful batteries in my past 3 scooters (Kymco, Honda, Burgman)
O.S.

I got mine from cycle gear for $45 and add $5 more for 2 year warranty

I've just replaced the battery in our LX:

You have to remove any plastic tray that might be there.
